The coffee machine has never worked so hard. Working until the early hours and tweeting late night DJ's (thank you https://twitter.com/maryannehobbs) all begins to get normal.
As does being hit in the face with a car by my youngest lad, Callan, because I've dozed off on the sofa before tea time again. Seeing a link I'd posted on Facebook to an Instagram post from Lesley Ann Parker of http://www.leap-gallery.com reach over 10,500 views on Facebook, and as shown in the picture above, featuring as Artist of the Month in http://everlongart.bigcartel.com] Everlong
I've been having an interesting time, with my last painting, Silent Wander, being painted using some Gel Retarder, which slows down the drying time of the paint, allowing me to work the blending longer. It's allowed me to take extra time to really work in some extra colours and build a sense of luminescence and body into the sky.
I collected my first run of prints today, and will be enlisting the help of my Guru Wrapping specialist Wife when it's time to enfold them in cellophane. They look so crisp and new, and with the added surrealism of seeing my painting reproduced, makes the whole scenario quite bizarre.
Well, that's it for now, I had better go make some more coffee, and get back to the easel.
